[RFC PATCH 1/4] ls-tree: don't use "show_tree_data" for "fast" callbacks

As noted in [1] the code that made it in as part of 9c4d58ff2c3 (ls-tree: split up "fast path" callbacks, 2022-03-23) was a "maybe a good idea, maybe not" RFC-quality patch. I hadn't looked very carefully at the resulting patterns.

The implementation shared the "struct show_tree_data data", which was introduced in e81517155e0 (ls-tree: introduce struct "show_tree_data", 2022-03-23) both for use in 455923e0a15 (ls-tree: introduce "--format" option, 2022-03-23), and because the "fat" callback hadn't been split up as 9c4d58ff2c3 did.

Now that that's been done we can see that most of what show_tree_common() was doing could be done lazily by the callbacks themselves, who in the pre-image were often using an odd mis-match of their own arguments and those same arguments stuck into the "data" structure. Let's also have the callers initialize the "type", rather than grabbing it from the "data" structure afterwards.
